Atlantic Dawn

I think I will have to set my sole goal for next year to make an appearance in the LLS audience, I can wear a suit made from pure hemp.

Mensa is all nonsense, and when pressed Mensa even admit that the test is essentially ridiculous and say it's also some kind of "philosophy".

I'm sure it's pretty impressive when you're six......

Welsh Megaman

He'll be in feckin class?

Harry Angstrom

Is there really a need to get your six year old tested for Mensa? Apart from boasting about it in the national press?

sudzs

uh-oh, skipping a year at that age can be disastrous... ir relation to bullying, isolation etc...

Wonder what magazines he gave him to read :pac:

Ol' Donie

I'm afraid to do an IQ test.

In case it turned out that I was, in fact, stupid.

Yes - worst thing you can do to a child.

Let them be (the child) - he is just odd there.

Atlantic Dawn

He would make money counting cards in Vegas, that's for sure. The father should get him to earn his keep.

I thought the point of children was for them to make up for your failures by being successful at the things you couldn't do?

JONJO THE MISER

Wow

jojofizzio

Pretty impressive mental arithmetic from a small fella!!!

Unruly Hector

Tubridy: "equals?"


AR$EHOLE!!!!

grey_so_what

He'd be a great poker player.....

Un Croissant

Fistbump fail.

Atlantic Dawn

Ah here.

grey_so_what

I loved Cape Town.

That cable cart nearly gave me a heart attack.

It's just a beautiful part of the world....

purplecow1977

Bad idea skipping a class like that. Especially as he is only 6.
IQ isn't everything.
He appears like he could do with increasing his social skills. Not being mean but . . . Jumping a class ahead could be detrimental.

Any kids I knew like that - ended up doing nothing.

Leave him alone.

He will just do ninja when it matters in leaving or finals.


Head cases putting him on tv etc.

Ol' Donie

Did I miss something there? Why are Louis' latest westlife on the competition bit?

sudzs

Ah they're still flogging off the low fat Flora margarine to the extremely non Mensa people who don't realise it is chemical goo that will clog up your arteries. :rolleyes:

grey_so_what

I've no idea who the half a dozen lads are........

Have we paid for that in our License fee??.....

I have no idea why parents would crave attention and put the lad under pressure to perform.......

Sometimes less is more.

I can only assume that either they did it for free or else payed for product placement, then again the cynic in me says RTÉ might have flown them out, who knows.

It's truly shameful the amount of airtime that Louis Walsh gets for his puppet bands... Could they not give a few real musicians a chance...

Yeah.

But usually more is more.

Just saying like.

Grand stretch in the evening tonight.

Atlantic Dawn

Its after 10pm, he can mention the same sex in his jokes.

grey_so_what

I can take this lad in small doses..........

sudzs

CountyHurler

Rachel, Darina and Tim are hiding behind the couch... Oh no, I forgot Tim isnt allowed out of the cellar...
